The Thai Yoga Massage Volunteer Vacation will be held from December 11–16, in Punta de Mita one of Mexico’s most popular travel destinations along the Riviera Nayarit, just north of Puerto Vallarta.

Added highlights may include whale watching, surfing, snorkeling, learning Spanish, and enjoying authentic Mexican cuisine.
"This hands-on experience has been life-changing for our guests and those they meet through volunteer experiences. There is a beautiful balance between the volunteer experience and the time to reflect and relax here in Mexico," says Katherine Fisher, founder, Destination:PEACE.
Volunteer time will be spent with PEACE Mexico, a local non-profit organization providing holistic education combined with community action programs that enable people to improve their quality of life, as well as, their financial stability. English classes, community gardening, after-school programs, recycling initiatives, and a free mobile spay/neuter clinic are among the various projects.

With extensive training in Chiang Mai, Thailand, she draws from the northern, central and southern styles. The Thai massage hours during the vacation can count as credits through both NCBTMB and THAI as well as Yoga Alliance.
Thai Yoga Massage incorporates assisted, progressive, yoga-like stretching and acupressure (pressure points along the Sen Sib lines, the meridian lines), reflexology, and aroma therapy via the steamed warmed Thai Herbal Compresses.
In this form of bodywork, usually performed on the floor; practitioners hold yoga postures while palming and thumbing along the body’s energy lines and pressure points. Together these actions result in a comprehensive full body treatment that relieves muscular tension, improves circulation, boosts the immune system and balances the body energetically.
